The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2024 and referred to the House Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 25, 2024, with 52 people signed in online: 50 in support and 2 in opposition. The committee met in executive session on January 30, 2024, January 31, 2024 and February 13, 2024. The committee recommended, on a tied vote of 10–10, which carries no majority, that the House make no recommendation, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. A floor amendment (2024-0641h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 7, 2024, changing the text of the bill. On March 7, 2024 the House voted to pass it with changes on a roll call 192–173. On March 7, 2024 the House failed “Reconsider HB1695” on a division vote 170–195, on a motion by Rep. Joe Sweeney. It crossed to the Senate on March 7, 2024 and was referred to the Senate Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 2, 2024. The committee voted 3–1 to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2024-1621s). The committee's amendment (2024-1621s) was adopted on a voice vote on May 2, 2024, changing the text of the bill. On May 2, 2024 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 24, 2024 the House adopted “House Non-Concurs with Senate Amendment 2024-1621s and Requests CofC” on a voice vote, on a motion by Rep. Rick Ladd. On May 30, 2024 the Senate adopted “Accedes to House Request for Committee of Conference” on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Ruth Ward. A committee of conference met on June 4, 2024 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill.
